Sensor data is captured with a sensor. The sensor data includes a lens-position of a prescription lens relative to a reference point of an optical coherence tomography (OCT) system. A mirror of a reference arm of the OCT system is positioned at an optical pathlength between an eye region of the prescription lens based at least in part on the sensor data. An OCT signal is generated while the mirror is positioned at the optical pathlength. At least one depth profile is generated that includes the prescription lens and the eye region.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
4. The method of claim 2, wherein the preliminary OCT signal is captured subsequent to capturing the sensor data.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the sensor includes at least one of an image sensor, a structured light depth sensors, stereo cameras, time-of-flight (TOF) cameras, low f-number camera with a shallow depth of field, or a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system.
8. The method of claim 6, wherein the volumetric ocular depth image includes a base curve of a front surface of the prescription lens and a back curve of a back surface of the prescription lens.
9. The method of claim 1, wherein the OCT system is a Fourier-domain OCT system including a light source to illuminate the eye region, the prescription lens, and the mirror of the reference arm.
13. The non-transitory machine-accessible storage medium of claim 11, wherein the preliminary OCT signal is captured subsequent to capturing the sensor data.
14. The non-transitory machine-accessible storage medium of claim 10, wherein the sensor includes at least one of an image sensor, a structured light depth sensors, stereo cameras, time-of-flight (TOF) cameras, low f-number camera or no f-number camera with a shallow depth of field, or a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system.
20. The system of claim 16, wherein the OCT device is a Fourier-domain OCT system including a light source to illuminate the eye region, the prescription lens, and the mirror of the reference arm.
